The Hornbeats 9 Piece Band at Empire Rochdale
The Hornbeats are a proper nine-piece powerhouse bringing a guaranteed night of soul, rock, funk and ska to Empire Rochdale this Halloween weekend. If you're after live music with some serious horns, tight grooves and the kind of energy that gets everyone on their feet, this Saturday 31 October is exactly what you need. With that full band sound and eclectic setlist, you'll get everything from smooth soul numbers to cheeky ska bangers.
Empire Rochdale sits right in the heart of Rochdale town centre, just a short tram ride from Manchester city centre, making it easily accessible for a night out. The venue's known for hosting quality live acts in an intimate setting with proper sound systems, and it's become a real favourite with Manchester's live music crowd for everything from indie to funk nights.
The gig kicks off at 8pm, so get there early to grab a good spot and soak in the pre-show buzz – it's an 18+ event, so bring ID. Expect a sweaty, lively dancefloor and arrive ready to move. Parking's straightforward around the venue, or jump on the tram from Piccadilly if you're heading from central Manchester.
